6- Viney. One of the best games I've seen him play. 5- Kennedy. Involved in a majority of our chances. 4- N Jones. A solid captain's game. 3- Oliver. Quiet third quarter, but a great debut. 2-

6 Viney (I said way back he was our Joel Selwood)

5 T-Mac (Started just like last season)

4 Kennedy (Kept bobbing up when we need him)

3 Gawn (what was our biggest worry pre-game - Mummy)

2 Watts (brilliant first and last terms, the latter limited by a corkie).

1 Hogan (the other matchwinner with JW - just like Lethal, does nothing and then steps up and wins the game for you. Didn't even need to take out three players).

Is Jetta that underrated amongst Melbourne fans? I think the main sentiment is acknowledgement that he just quietly goes about his business; defends solidly and rarely wastes the ball when he has it. He doesn't do things that get a lot of attention (compared to TMac with the marking, for example) but I reckon most would agree that he's an important part of the team. I certainly haven't read much negative sentiment towards him at all since he was reinvented as a back pocket by Roos.

I cannot understand how Salem's game has suddenly gone unnoticed? It is not as though he has put a step wrong.

GTG, I always like what you have to say but....Jones well ahead of Watts? Not for mine.

I've always been a Watts fan and I definitely understand why he's getting a lot of votes here. I had him lower in my ranking due to how quiet he was in Q2 and Q3, but that doesn't mean that I wasn't very impressed with his game.

6 - Viney - consistent 4 qtrs, and stood up during the middle patch where things weren't going our way.

5 - McDonald - very solid in defence all game.

4 - Watts - He started the resurgence and had numerous important touches. He seemed really vocal all game, too.

3 - Kennedy - like Watts, had a huge last qtr and plenty of score involvements.

2 - N Jones - solid captain's game and his move into defence really steadied us.

1 - Gawn - Had an excellent game on Mummy.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
